Subject: "Whatever Happenned To Saturday Night" - Rocky Horror Picture Show
Hi,
Here are (as promised) the lyrics and chords to :
"Whatever Happenned To Saturday Night"/"Hot Patootie (Bless My Soul)"
I got the lyrics from cs.uwp.edu (though I edited them a little) and
worked the chords out mostly by just playing my guitar like a bass along
with the CD - I hope they're correct! The sax solo part is good to muck
around with - just play something in C# and then later in D over the
top of the last 8 "Hot Patootie"s.
The version of the song that I worked this out from was on :
"The Rocky Horror Pictur Show" Soundtrack CD
(Music from the original soundtrack of the
20th century fox presentation of the Michael
White/Lou Adler Production)
In my opinion this is the best version of the "Show" with the fab Tim Curry
- not to mention a foxy Susan Sarandon!
COMING SOON : "Sweet Transvestite"

C#Bb
My head used to swim from the perfume I smelled.
C#Bb
My hands kind of fumbled with her white plastic belt.
F#Ab
I'd taste her baby pink lipstick and that's when I'd melt
F#Ab
And she'd whisper in my ear tonight she really was mine.
C#Bb
Get back in front, put some hair oil on
C#Bb
Buddy Holly was singing his very last song.
F#Ab
With your arms around your girl you'd try to sing along.
